Very nicely done Lindsay. When you first started talking, in a low soft voice, I thought, he must be tying early and family is still in bed. Thanks for all your videos.
Sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb forgot the password. I love any tricks you can offer me
@Karter Quentin i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Nicely done! Is this primarily a still water fly or can it be swung in the current ? There are tons of variants of the CRUNCHR pattern across the UK but across the pond in the US I don't see it tied albeit it's reminiscent of a PTN. Is this fly primarily fished from a boat on a loch or resivor as a part of a team of flies or is it fished alone? Just curious. I may try to tie a few crunchers to fish in my home waters in Michigan. Thanks for sharng!
That is a nice looking fly. I particularly like the use of the split jungle cock. When I first began fishing streamers with jungle cock for eyes, the feather showed a luminous quality that really gave the fly a lifelike appearance in the water. That may happen here. One thing puzzles me about crunchers. What are they? I don’t think the term is used in the US. They appear to be nymphs but I’m not sure how they are different from other generic nymphs. I haven’t found a clear definition from online searches.
Hi Lindsay, nice wee fly, A 3 fly cast of these during a buzzer hatch should do the biz. Cheers Jimf
That would be cool, but I think as an attractor on a three fly cast would be better, something a bit drabber in behind maybe?
Thx once again Lindsay. I really like your fly tying instructions and the flies you demo. Very practical. Nice fly!!👍🏻🙂
My pleasure, the fly tying is keeping me going at the minute!
Nice little cruncher Lindsay. Thank you for another one dude.
No problem 👍
Thanks Lindsay for the tutorial.
Stay safe. Big Davie
No worries, its not like I have much else to keep me bust pal.!
Nice wee cruncher Lindsay,
I'll have a go at that one.
Cheers for the upload!!
ATB Chris.
No problem 👍

So true, it had just gone 0500hrs when I was filming this!
Nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
👍
Thanks Lindsay, nice looking fly. How would you fish this pattern? Stay safe mate!
As part of a team of three or four flies pulled or figure of eight. I would most likely fish it on the top dropper as an attractor fly.

Primary use is on Stillwater but I am sure it will work on rivers as well.
Sorry I slept through your live, I didn't awaken until 7am, I am 5 hours behind GMT.
Its no bother pal, thanks for watching.

I think here in the UK it's just a name for a themed wet-fly with a soft hackle. There are quite literally hundreds of variations.
